3 A/N POV

--- HEAVEN

TEACHER, PLEASE FORGET ME, AND TAKE GOOD CARE OF YOURSELF

Dom the Sea Deity jumped at the back of someone who's in daze under the Moon's Deity glory with God of Night, he kissed the man he waited for a hundred of thousands of years after their separation, how he missed the old days together with him, he cheered inside his mind.

Heaven and Earth have a big difference between time and days, ten years on earth was just ten days to heaven, residents above reproduction are through essence while on earth the baby will grow inside a specific body.

Born in heaven, depends on if, of a natural flow means a spirit of no root or origin or the abandoned ones, but a fewer were born this way because most are born with parents of acknowledgement.

The spirit of no root like Saryat suffered too much humiliation from being looked down mostly by everyone.

Especially in middle heaven, a place where most spirit essence were born, right, before and after their parent's acknowledgement, together they learn way of lives, knowing their sole responsibility after ascension, be it a Deity or a God.

Spirit born in the essence of acknowledgement from of their parents, who ascended to become a Deity, will come to the main Heaven and live with the land of Emperor together with their birth parents.

But Spirit with no root of acknowledgement from both side of their parents, have no rights to enter the land of Emperor, they will spend the rest of their lives in middle Heaven, until they lost their will to live to some circumstances, after living a long, long life.

Though they are all immortal, living for too long can make them unhappy and will soon choose to either reincarnate or die in the hands of their chosen enemy with no return.

Saryat was unresponsive to the heat of love coming from the Deity of Sea, he was getting some fresh air when he felt someone pressed him unto the grass, tenderly, with lots of care.

Though Saryat knew he will come and pounce at him, like the old times.

His head says how he missed this feeling too, but the heart was empty and rid of any desire, unlike how he remembered how they are before.

The cuddle, kisses, and heat of their bodies were just a cold fragments for him presently, Dom was his teacher and his lover way back, but he must bring this Deity back to someone who deserves him better, and he was not the one.

"Saryat, I miss you so much, I'm glad you arrived safely, we can finally get bonded, let's do the ceremony now, I wanted you so badly to be mine."

Dom perked, pinning him to the ground towering and licking Saryat's neck, nibbling his earlobe.

Saryat felt itchy and heightened, to the way Dom teased him, but when he felt teeth about to sunk deeper unto his flesh, he pushed Dom and sit up, pulling his clothes fixing them back, before he got almost naked, clutching his shoulder that was almost bonded.

Sea Deity was not used by the sudden coldness radiating from Saryat, he was also not prepared when he was pushed by great force, Saryat was never harsh on him, he felt ominous and joke aside to lift the awkwardness, it was almost done, the bond, if he didn't tally a little longer and enjoy teasing him, maybe, he had bitten Saryat and bonded.

"What's wrong?, aren't I allowed to have a snack? We've done this before, and more than just kissing, Saryat?"

He said chuckling and tried to reach for Saryat's face again, wanting to meet his gaze, but what he saw was not what he wanted.

Saryat's avoided his hands and eyes, he failed to read those blank stares, he already feels something was off, he can't help but wonder what his little lover have been through, during the multiple tribulation down to earth, to become this cold, as if he had lost his heart and the Saryat in front of him was no longer the one he used to love.

Saryat's crystal fate during the tribulation was always guarded by him, and when it was clouded by mist, a few days ago, before those who are not fond of him force Saryat to ascend back to middle heaven.

With that, Dom search for him unto earth, worrying about his safety, that's why he got late when his little lover became a Deity; no one can tell why suddenly the crystal fate of Saryat's tribulation turned misty.

It was unknown to them that the reason was because, the Emperor's son was with Saryat for that seven and a half day's, which was 75 years on earth, they will surely see nothing because Eros tribulation was a sacred one, not even his family saw and knew what he had been through.

"You better get back home Dom, you know what's between us, was impossible to begin with, we better end it now"

A sudden stop of breathing makes Dom dizzy, he wasn't able to comprehend what Saryat was saying to believe his hearing this to Saryat's mouth, he patiently waited for him, now his pushing him away, like that?, A dry laugh escapes his mouth.

"What?"

He asked not confused but questioning the new Deity in front of him, the sudden rush of fright escape through his system, the feeling of lost and dilemma was well written on his face.

"Saryat, you've got to be kidding me right?, This is not what we promised to each other before you were thrown on the pool of fate, I know, you're blaming me, for not standing up for you, but I did my best to beg them to stop throwing you again and again for the nth time for another tribulation."

Tears he held back betrayed his facade of acting unhurt, not just a single tears but a lot of them, his tears, turned into crystal pearls, he looked so pretty in these tears of pearl under the light of Moon Deity.

Saryat mind says the Deity look so beautiful and pitiful that he wanted to hug him tight, but what should he feel? Should it be what his mind was saying?

But Saryat can't blame the God of fate, and every Deity with roots of acknowledgement for throwing him countless times into endless tribulation, and Dom was not someone he could blame, they were both impulsive and in love way back.

"I don't blame you, and I don't blame anyone either, Dom, we both know, we have to end this, the sooner, the better, you're the essence of two Deity, while I am just an essence with no root of acknowledgement, mostly a bastard."

He caressed Dom's tear that turn into pearl inside his palm, his mind sigh, saying the same thing, of how beautiful Dom was in tears of pearl under the moon.

Also, there's something inside him that wanted to kiss those eyes in tiny pretty little pearls and say.

"No I'm not leaving you, you're my life, my everything".

But were just left unsaid inside his mind.

He doesn't understand his own self either, it's debating inside him, and even so, he felt nothing for Dom now, a big contrast to what he remembers when he was still a low-level spirit.

He clearly remembers how excited and greedy they were before, every time they were in solitude, where they shared the warmth of their bodies graciously, where they were both obsessed with each other kisses, but not until his tribulation he became empty.

"I don't care about this shit, of what essence, of what! We are!, what do they care about us, huh?, What I know is that love you! We are in love, you! You love me, right? You still love me, Saryat! Say it!"

Grasping Saryat's collar and pulled him for another kiss, but he didn't even touch that steady lips before he was stopped by two slim hands, and because of this, Dom cried even harder, making another sea of pearl around them.

"Sorry Dom, I think there's something wrong with me, that changed, what happen between us in the past I remember and will be my treasure, teacher, please forget me, and take good care of yourself"

Saryat wave his left arms and turn into dust, leaving a heartbroken Deity, drowning in a sea of pearls.

Moon Deity smiled into his heart content watching the scene from above and flew his way down to give Sea Deity a hug, rejoicing inside him, as if he was the prince charming saving the damsel distressed.
